'characteristic of many foreigners' is the second definition.
The answer and definition can be both related to communication as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I don't see?
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for accent that I've seen before include "A localised way of speaking" , "Local way of pronouncing words" , "intensity" , "Mark over a vowel, perhaps" , "Stress - manner of speech" .)
